Speedy deletion nomination of User:Ebbsfleet Garden City


A tag has been placed on your user page, User:Ebbsfleet Garden City, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be blatant advertising which only promotes or publicises a company, product, group or service. This is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages — user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources or advertising space. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. 331dot (talk) 08:41, 2 May 2017 (UTC)

Contested deletion
This page is not unambiguously promotional, because it relates to a major regeneration project carried out by the Ebbsfleet Development Corporation on behalf of the UK Government and is one of the largest regeneration projects in the UK
 * The first issue is that you seem to have chosen your username as that of the article you are attempting to create, so you will need to change your username; to do so, please visit this page for instructions. Second, your userpage is not article space.  Third, if you are associated with this project, you will need to review the conflict of interest and paid editing policies(the latter of which only if you are paid or editing as part of your job) before attempting to create a page about it.  If you have independent reliable sources that indicate how this project is notable, you may wish to create a page through Articles for Creation. which provides assistance along the way and allows for an independent review before it is posted. 331dot (talk) 08:50, 2 May 2017 (UTC)

Contested deletion
This page is not unambiguously promotional, because... (this is a major UK government regeneration project and does not advertise anything. This is one of the largest regeneration projects in the UK and the user does not gain in anyway by this page. The name Ebbsfleet Garden City is an area and not a company) --Ebbsfleet Garden City (talk) 08:50, 2 May 2017 (UTC)
 * For further comment, please edit this page directly; click "Edit" at the top of the screen or at the top of this section when viewing this page. "The user" does not have to gain something for this to be promotional; please address the issues I have brought up above. An area is still an organization and would still require you to change your username; your username must indicate you as an individual user. You don't have to use your real name, just something to indicate only you are using this username.  331dot (talk) 08:57, 2 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I would add that merely giving information is a form of promotion; the article needs independent sources, as I state above. 331dot (talk) 09:00, 2 May 2017 (UTC)


 * I wanted to clarify that I am not an administrator, just a regular user like you. Thanks for putting in a change request. 331dot (talk) 09:05, 2 May 2017 (UTC)

There have been two problems identified with this account: the account has been used for advertising or promotion, which is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia; and your username indicates that the account represents a business or other organisation or group, which is also against policy, as an account must be for just one person. Because of those problems, the account has been blocked indefinitely from editing.

If you intend to make useful contributions about some topic other than your business or organisation, you may request an unblock. To do so, post the text at the bottom of your talk page. Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:CentralAuth to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy. Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:
 * Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the kind of edits for which you were blocked.
 * Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.

If you believe this block was made in error, you may appeal this block by adding the text at the bottom of your talk page, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. &mdash; RHaworth (talk · contribs) 09:20, 2 May 2017 (UTC)
